About the Team

Postman’s DevRel & Open Technologies functions were created to make Postman more approachable and empathetic to the needs of the broader developer community as well as to establish Postman as a leader in the API sector by building strong relationships with thought leaders and organizations in the domain. We are investing in Open Specifications, Standards, Tooling, Data, and Policies because we believe that building a strong community and investing in their success is essential to our own success as a company. We are now looking for an experienced Open Source Technical Community Manager to join our growing JSON Schema squad within Open Technologies.

As Technical Community Manager, you will engage with different Open Source and Postman Communities by driving user education on better API practices throughout the API ecosystem. You'll be working closely with your Developer Relations and Open Technologies team members, focusing on the JSON Schema specification, demonstrating and communicating its value and many uses.
